Review
This lovely ode to nature will captivate young readers. It is told in the quiet, calm voice of a young girl as she explores round things, mostly in nature. She loves to feel their smoothness, watch them grow, and when they move. Illustrations are lovely, with a textural feel to them. There is back matter on why things are round. I would love to read this one on one with a small child to talk with them about "round." I think they would love it!
Overall Book Score: very good
